“We hired Jango at our son Michael’s birthday party. We wish to say a huge thank you to him as the show was absolutely FANTASTIC. I literally had a flood of parents approaching me on Monday morning asking for contact details should they be thinking of having a party for their child at some point in the future. Comments such as “hilarious”, “brilliant” and “the best clown/entertainer I have ever seen” are to name just a few of the comments that have been made by the parents/children. Thank you so much for making Michael’s party so memorable, including making him feel so special, and as I’m sure you’ll be aware, we will never hesitate to recommend Jango to anyone.” A huge thank you from Christina, John and Michael Swinton

“Hi Jango, Just thought I’d drop you a quick note to thank you for making Sadie’s birthday party such a success on Saturday! The kids (and adults) all really enjoyed your show and have still all been talking about it at nursery today. Would certainly have no hesitation in recommending you! In fact a few of the mum’s are texting saying their kids are now asking for a “Jango” party so hopefully it may result in some bookings for you. Hope to see you again soon.”

Kind regards. Louise

“Hi Jango, I would like to say a big thank you for the great show you put on for Ilona and Eihmir ‘s party. As you could see by all the laughing the kids loved it. And I liked the way you continue to engage with them both while setting up and packing up. We put cards with the party bags and I will recommend you to as many mum as possible. I have seen a few kid party shows but your is definitely the best so far. The clowning plus magic work great together. All the best”

I am so glad we had you back for our 50th Birthday Party! My own kids were delighted to see you again and ALL the children loved the show.

You got the evening off to a fabulous start and as a result, lots of happy children survived until midnight allowing their parents a good night out too. Thank you!Fiona Nightingale

just a quick note to say thank you very much for the fabulous entertainment that you provided at Freya’s party on Sunday. I was amazed that you kept all of the kids attention for a whole hour! And it certainly took the pressure off us. They all really enjoyed themselves and a few Mums texted me after the party to say that their kids had talked about Jango all evening and they had really enjoyed the show.Thanks again,Sarah

Thank you so much for making Seamus’ party such a big success. When I dropped him off at nursery this morning, everyone was talking about how marvellous you were. All the children had a really great time, not only because they adored the clowning and the magic tricks, but they all had a run around, played some fantastic games and came away with a balloon sculpture. Goodness knows how you did it, but you quickly got the unruly children (and parents!) to behave with the result that every one could enjoy the party properly.

Thanks also for your help with the buffet and your suggestion that they have a sit down tea. It all worked. Hope you are having a day’s rest today. You deserve it. Was going to ‘like’ you on Facebook and make a comment, but can’t find a Jango page. If there is one, do let me know.Thanks again.Nelly Morrison

Netmums April 2010 Jacqui says: Fantastic entertainment. The adults loved him as much as the kids. Great magic tricks, juggling and lots of fun. I’ve seen 4 different kids entertainment shows in the space of 3 weeks and he’s head and shoulders above the rest

Thank you for providing the entertainment at Daniel’s party on Monday. He was absolutely delighted as were his friends. It was lovely to see them all belly-laughing and shrieking with delight. The younger sibling who stayed for the party, but stood out in the hallway initially, had made it into the room by several feet by the end of the show and was giggling away happily and the older child who had retreated to the faraway chair the moment she arrived (nothing personal!), was trying very hard to hide the fact that she couldn’t stop herself from laughing too! 100% success rate! Daniel and Ben are still talking about your show and we have daily discussions at breakfast about how the present got into the hat, although D a bit sad that he can’t blow the tail on the poodle away anymore….. Many, many thanks,Fiona

I just wanted to drop you an email to say thank you for a great party for Meghan on Sunday. She absolutely loved it and it was great to see her and all friends having such a great time. So many of the mums that were there said how great they thought you were and how much their children are still talking about the “funny man”. Our many thanks for making the party such a success. Kind regards Claire

Parents were also impressed at how you manage to keep control of a large group of excited 5 year olds who know exactly how to push the boundaries!!!

Just a quickie to say ‘huge’ thanks for Maddie’s party entertainment on Saturday. You were great, and all the parents are in total awe of you – how you kept 30 x 5 year olds under control for an hour is beyond everyone ! Think you will get more bookings from it. Maybe see you next year also.Thanks again.J

I just wanted again to say how grateful we are that Lucy’s party on Saturday was such a great success. The adults who were at the party all commented on how your excellent skills in entertaining children had them all rolling about with laughter. A number of the mums and adult helpers (some of whom are teachers and nursery nurses) also commented on how natural you are in welcoming all the children at the outset and making them included throughout the show and the remainder of the party. It was just fantastic and I am happy to highly recommend you to others. Thank you so much again Louisa

Well, I know I hardly saw any of your performance on Sunday afternoon, but you were talked about for hours and hours afterwards!!! I just wanted to say thank you so much as you really did make a difference and added fun into the afternoon. I was worried at one point as our children numbers dramatically dropped the day before, but from what I heard, the adults were more than happy to be the audience. If you want me to leave a comment/ recommendation anywhere at all then please let me know as I would be more than delighted to do this. Kind regards Donna

I thort I would just write you a Quick note to thank you again for the absolutly fantastic show you put on for the kids on sunday, I was utterly amazed how you kept 28 children ages of 3 to 4 totally focused and entertained for that long, every one loved you and you certainly are one heck of an entertainer! your still the talk of nursary and you have got mums saying to others ‘have you seen Jango’ he’s fantastic!

Kind regards Bianca, Ashley, Aldo and TaylaI

have had loads more positive feedback about you through the week from nursery mums and recommended you to my next door neighbour for her son’s 7th birthday in June. No problem with you using my comments on your website. Fred has your photo on his bedroom wall now! Thanks again Amy

Just wanted to say a huge thank you again for today – I am still amazed by what a great party you provided – exactly as advertised – a totally stress free party and you did run it all like clockwork and so well. It made it a nice change for the grown ups to be able to relax too!

Fred said at bathtime that Jango is coming to his party when he is six and seven and eight and nine. Let’s hope you have plenty of material! Seriously, I expect we will see you again, if not for Fred then for Stan who has been talking about your juggling and fixing your shoes – it’s very funny hearing what they most remember. We watched back the camcorder and they laughed so much all over again – lots of parents have said how much their kids enjoyed it too – must be nice to have a job that brings so much laughter!

Anyway, thanks again for everything you did today and no doubt see you again. Obviously I have your details to pass on to anyone who asks and you have an easy to remember website address too – certainly added to my favourites list if only so Fred can watch the videos! Kind regards and thanks again Amy

Just a quick note to say thank you very much for the entertainment you provided on Sun – it went down a treat with the kids and the adults also commented on how good the show was. Sajida

I just wanted to send a quick note to say thank you so much for today. You were brilliant! Keeping 23 kids entertained for 1 1/2 hours was amazing. Abbie wants to pass on a message too: “Thank you very much for having lots of fun at my party my favourite part was the juggling. You are very silly. Lots of Love Abbie x ” I will definitely have no problems recommending you to other mums. Thanks again. Angela & Brad Callaghan (Very happy parents)

Thanks for today, the children had a great time. I think Joe’s sides will be sore tomorrow from all his laughing! Thanks again, Melissa.

I just wanted to thank you for a great performance on Saturday at our Christmas party. The children loved it and quite a few of the adults commented afterwards on how talented you are. When I dropped Leo off at the nursery this morning, the children were already drawing pictures of the party. I loved the stuff with the hat but the children were all talking about the water you poured on your head…I must have missed that bit! Thanks again. Kind regards Kirsti

Just wanted to thank you for an absolutely superb show which managed to entertain both the children and the adults. Everyone has raved about you. A lot of the audience were quite seasoned party goers and they all said that you were the best entertainer they had seen (have given your card out to people). I especially wanted to thank you as the numbers seemed to grow at the last minute and I know some of the children were quite challenging!! Looking forward to booking you for Lulu’s 5th birthday when the time comes! Thanks again.Juliet & Colin

We hired “Jango” at our son Michael’s birthday party last Saturday at Craiglockhart Sports Centre. We wish to say a huge thank you to him and the clown company as the show was absolutely FANTASTIC. I literally had a flood of parents approaching me on Monday morning asking for contact details should they be thinking of having a party for their child at some point in the future. Comments such as “hilarious”, “brilliant” and “the best clown/entertainer I have ever seen” are to name just a few of the comments that have been made by the parents/children.

‘On behalf of all the Ripley & Scuff team… thank you for your fabulous contribution & wonderfully eccentric performances. We worked with thousands of children during our eight weeks on the road and rarely did we see such an enthusiastic response as we did when they watched your pieces. Across the 40 episodes we feel your appearances are the strongest of our special guests and have made two excellent programmes. It’s been a pleasure to work with you and we hope to be in a position to call you again in the near future.’ Ali Trott, Producer, Ripley & Scuff for The Childrens Company.

this talented physical comedian clowns around with a succession of props: hats, an umbrella, cups, flags, even a ukulele. All of these are comedy fodder to this naturally gifted performer who makes intricately physical routines seem effortless. The performance was never less than impressive, the kids loved every minute.
